looks close but they say 6 in max size this is double that

My petsmart said that my BGK will grow about 3 inches and nicely do in a 5 g - nonsense... they grow almost as big as a 5 g though...
 
awesome knife, very unique!
 
nice fish...the electric fishes fighting isn't an allways, it can work...eg my 2 10" bgks in a 55gal

Like I said, most will, but some wont. I do know a few people who have had good luck with them, but then again the two Knives he as are a different species. Two BGK's will normally get along due to the fact that they are the same species.
Sometimes it works, and sometimes it doesn't, and in his case it seems like it isn't working out so well.

they all seemed to calm down now i just picked up a 14in trumpet knife and put him in there he seems to be doing good so far

lol, another? That fast? Any Pics? Wish my LFS had strange species of Knives. So far it only has had a Glass, African, and BGK. Finding the E. humboldtii was just luck that they mislabled the fish. I had a chance to get a trumpet, but I know they like different foods. Foods that will cost me more money, becuase I don't have them, lol. I just contacted someone, and hopefully I will be getting a new Knife species within the next two weeks.
 
picked him up today same lfs lol went there to grab some live black worms and there these guys were he said he got them in last week and had been quarantine them
